Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the difference between Managed VPS and Self-Managed VPS with Linux?

    The main distinction between Managed and Unmanaged VPS hosting plans with Linux comes from the feature set and level of support. Self-managed VPS solutions grant you complete control, as you practically get a bare-metal physical server to configure according to your requirements. In comparison, the hosting provider is always by your side in a fully managed VPS hosting environment. You can count on the web host for hardware and software setup, maintenance, updates, and issue resolution.

  • What is the difference between a Linux VPS and dedicated servers?

    There are certain similarities between a Linux VPS and a dedicated server. The Linux VPS solutions excel when it comes to scalability. While you can easily add/remove resources from a virtual server, doing that on a dedicated machine would require a full upgrade and data migration to a new server. The Linux VPS hosting cost is another factor that should not be overlooked, with the services being far more affordable than a standard dedicated solution.

  • Can I customize my self-managed Linux VPS server?

    Yes—full root access lets you install any software stack, run custom services, modify system configurations, and deploy any Linux-compatible application. Your environment, your rules.

  • Can I add more CPU cores or RAM to my Linux VPS?

    Yes, scale CPU, RAM, or storage instantly through your client area with zero downtime. Resources are available immediately without service interruption or migration.

  • What operating systems do your self-managed VPS plans support?

    All virtual private servers with ScalaHosting offer a wide choice of operating systems. Linux-based users can take a pick between Ubuntu, Debian, Rocky Linux, and AlmaLinux. Naturally, the Windows operating system is also supported if you are looking to run Microsoft products.

  • What can I use my Linux VPS for?

    There are no limitations when it comes to the main purpose of your virtual private server with Linux. You can use it for file storage, for keeping backups safe, as a mail server, as a gaming server, and many more.
